Which makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He looked out of it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You could kind of see it on him,&#8221; Lee replied to the UFC commentator. &#8220;Even walking out, you can kind of see his look and its a little glazed. I figure it was just coming over to America the first time, being in New York. That&#8217;s a lot of pressure. Especially when you talk about Deontay Wilder knocking out [Dominick Breazeale] into the next century the week before.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For the moment, this comment from Joe Rogan \u2014 and the other similar rumors popping up in other parts of the combat sports bubble \u2014 are difficult to verify.\u00a0Whatever the case, Andy Ruiz and Anthony Joshua are expected to rematch in The United Kingdom in the fall, which should give us a clear picture as to who the better boxer truly is.<\/p>\n<p>Do you believe this claim from Joe Rogan?
